Every other year, I listen to all of the music in my collection. Often, I discover new things about music I'm familiar with or learn new things about songs I'm not as familiar with. This is where I'll be documenting that.

Sam Cooke's "For Sentimental Reasons"
I've been making my way through a three-disc set of Sam Cooke (titled You Send Me), and yester-day when I listened to the second disc, I noticed something about "For Sentimental Reasons," specifically the line "I dream of you every every every every night." Those "every"s are sung with three syllables each (rather than the two they're usually pronounced with), and between that pronunciation and the repetition there, the frequency of "dream[ing] of you" is illustrated.
